Failing Health.

Ten years ago my health began to fail.
was troubled with distressing Cough,
Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous
ness. I tried various remedies pre-
scribed by different physicians, but
became so weak that could not 20 up
stairs without stopping to rest. My
friends recommended me to try Ayers
Sarsaparilla, which did, and L am now
rs healthy and strong as ever. Mrs.
L. L. Williams, Alexandria, MINI.
L have used Ayers Sarsaparilla, in M
family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is
taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly
eradicate this terrible disease. I have
also prescribed it as tonic, as well as an
Alternative, and must say that / honestly
believe it to be the best blood medicine
ever compounded.-W. f. Fowler, NJ. D.,

The First Sign

OF falling health, whether in the form OF
Night Sweats and Nervousness, or IN q
sense of General WEAKNESS and Loss OF
Appetite, should suggest the use of
Ayers Sarsaparilla. This preparation
IS most effective for giving tone and
strength to the enfeebled system, pro-
noting the digestion and assimilation of
food, restoring the nervous forces to
their normal condition, and for purify
ing, enriching, and vitalizing the blood.

A Quaint Story.

It is q beautiful story that in one of
the cities of Italy the King caused q
bell to be hung in tower of one of
the public squares, and called it the
"bell of Justice" and commanded that
any one who had been wronged should
60 and ring the. bell, and so. call the
magistrate of the city, and ask and re-
ceive justice. And when, in the
course of time, the lower end of the
bell-rope rotted away, wild vine was
tied to it to lengthen it; and one day
an old and starving horse, that had
been abandoned by its owner and
turned out to die. wandered into the
tower, and trying to eat the vine rang
the bell. And the magistrate of the
city, coming to see who had rung the
bell, found this old and starving horsr,
and caused the owner of the horse, in
whose service he had toiled and had
been worn out, to be summoned before
him, and decreed that as this poor
horse had wrung the bell of justice, he
should have justice, and that during
the remainder of his natural life his
owner should provide for him proper
food and drink and stable.

Cultivate Quietness.

Cultivate quietness. Many DO the
reverse: always hurrying, rushing
hither and thither, as if to personify
perpetual motion. If everything does
not 60 quite straight, if there is some
little hitch which prevents the wheels
of daily life from running smoothly,
they fuss and fume and fret till they
make matters ten times worse. They
rarely do much. They build with one
hand and pull down with the other.
They forget that "in quietness and
confidence is their strength" There
is no inherent power, but rather weak
ness, in fussy excitement. The en-
CINE shuts down the noisy escape OF
steam when it comes to draw. Keep
calm. Take things quietly as they
come. Do what you can. Leave the
rest to God. Leave your troubles to
God. Bend down; let the storm
sweep over you; when pressed, look
again to the clear. calm, blue heavens,
which are still there.

The natural rate of respiration is
from sixteen to twenty-four breaths
per minute, the average being twen-
ty; and DR.. Oliver Wendell Holmes
has explained the popularity of the
octosyllabic verse by the fact that it
follows the natural rhythm of respira-
ton more exactly than any other.
Experiments with the poetry of Scott,
Longfellow, and Tennyson, show that
all average of twenty lines will be read
in a minute, 50 that one respiration
will suffice for each line. The articu-
Iation is so easy, in fact, that it is liza,
ble to run into sing-song. The
twelve-syllable line, on the other hand
AS in Drayton's "Polyolbion'-is
pronounced almost intolerable Oh ac'
count of its unphysiological construc'
ton. From this it follows that, while
the poet disregard science in many
ways with impunity, nothing in poe
try or in vocal music is likely to win
favor that is not calculated with strict
reference to the respiratory functions

make them productive of the least
amount of harm. Public eXamina-
tions are in some ways undesirable,
but are preferable to other kinds of cx-

could or would content themselves
with these the result would be a pow
erful stimulus to both industrious and

School Exhibitions.

ItlC StOoC1 oho AA~sy
oyerworked teachers, with several
millions of pupils and students, young
and old, are now engaged in an ear
nest effort to do in one month the
work Of two.
In this undertaking, they are, in no
small degree hampered by the annual
exhibitions, for, from time immemori-
al, the close of the school year is set
apart as sacred to elocutionary pyro-
technics to dramatic and musical dis
PLAYS and to that annual nuisance, the
public examination. So accustomed
have the patrons of the schools be-
come to these entertainments that
public exercises of some kind are re-
garded as almost necessity and to
close the term without them is to in
cur sort of reproach, the suspicion OF
a lack of diligence or enterprise rest
ing upon teachers who fail to provide
for the entertainment of their patrons
by getting up some sort of exhibition
in which their scholars appear as the
performers.
Teachers, as a rule, do not like school
exhibitions, and dread the season
when preparation for them must be
made, but such is the demand for
them by patrons that the necessity for
doing something in that line seems to
be imperative. So the teachers, in re-
sponse to the demand, 60 to work ard
with infinite pains prepare dialogues,
songs, orations cantatas and dramatic
representations, generally to find the
result unsatisfactory.
The fundamental principle on which
the school exhibition is based is that
every scholar whose parents desire his
public appearance must appear, wheth-
er his share of the entertainment be
creditable or not. Every one does ap-
pear accordingly; if he is reasonably
successful he gets, the credit; if he
fails the teacher gets the blame; so
everything is thus adjusted to the sat
isfaction OF everybody but the teacher,
who, of course, being only teacher,
has no right to complain.
Yet it is almost certain that, general
Iy speaking, the system of public ex-
hibitions now in vogue is productive
of quite as much harm as good. In
the first place, the public entertain
ments require an amount of labor OH
the part of teachers and pupils of
which few who have not tried it have
an adequate idea. Much Of this work
must be done during the regular school
hours, and instances will occur to the
minds of many readers, when for the
last month of the session, the studies
were almost entirely neglected, in
consequence of the time being taken
up in preparation for the exhibitions.
IF the studies are carried on as usual,
both teacher and pupils are worked al
most beyond human endurance: if
studies are not regularly pursued dur
ing the last few weeks much of the
good is lost, for it is generally conced-
ed that thorough review is almost as
necessary as the work preceding it.
An abandonment of the displays and
hhibitions would mean an average of
Dh6ee weeks more time given to
n5uties of the school, and
use number of schools
- zen to account, the
